First when you see the bat flying inside CALL your local county animal control officer.  They have to respond to this call. It is considered an emergency.  they will not remove the colony in your attic or repair your house, but they will remove the bat if they can locate it. Time is of the essence, don't wait until its morning or until you get off work, DO IT NOW !   If they cannot find it then its time to call a wildlife professional.
